  • Recommendations for process improvements for enhanced reporting
  • Recommendations on appropriate bookkeeping system such as a spreadsheet or Quickbooks and related costs (if necessary)

Additional details

What we are really seeking is an analysis of our accounting process for our annual fundraiser. We use Paypal, Quickbooks and Excel - then Spire for credit card payments at the actual event. It seems too manual and time consuming. We appreciate assistance to create a more efficient process.

What we have in place
  • I oversee all the accounting processes and am able to access all of our systems. I am available for this project.
How this will help
This project will save us $8,564 , allowing us to allocation more time and energy towards our core mission.

We wish to create and more efficient accounting process for our fundraiser.
